About Double Espresso Chiaro Decaffeinato
The Nespresso Vertuo Double Espresso Chiaro Decaffeinato is an intense yet balanced decaf capsule made only for Vertuo machines. At intensity 8 out of 12, it delivers woody, earthy and toasted cereal notes in an 80 ml double espresso — the same character as Chiaro, without the caffeine. A balanced split roast of Latin American Arabicas makes it a strong finishing touch after any meal.

Product Details
Origin
A blend of decaffeinated Latin American Arabicas, including Brazil and Colombia. Both washed and dry-processed (natural) beans go into the mix, so each processing method brings its own aromatic profile to the cup.
Roasting
Washed and natural Arabicas are roasted separately. Both get an intense, short roast so the woody and earthy aromas stay clear while the blend keeps its intensity without harsh bitterness.
How It Tastes
Woody and toasted cereal lead, with earthy depth and a full body (4 of 5). Bitterness and roastiness sit at 3 of 5, acidity at 2 of 5 — intense enough to finish a meal, balanced enough to stay approachable.
How to Serve It
Double Espresso (80 ml): Brew black for the fullest woody and toasted cereal character.
Creations Mode (40 ml): Use a more concentrated extract as a base for milk recipes.
With milk: Steamed milk softens the woodiness and brings out blond caramel with a thick, creamy texture.
After a meal: An intense yet balanced decaf double shot as a last course — without the late caffeine.
